Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of water treatment technology, and more specifically to a high-utilization-rate water treatment device and method. Background Technology
[0002] The core objective of electroplating production is to obtain a uniform, dense, corrosion-resistant, and strongly adhesive metal coating, and water quality directly determines the coating quality and production stability. Pure water / ultrapure water is indispensable in the entire electroplating process, and specific applications include: Pre-plating cleaning: It is necessary to remove oil, oxide scale and acid and alkali residues (such as chloride ions and sodium ions) from the surface of the workpiece to avoid impurities being introduced into the plating solution, which may cause pinholes, pits and spots in the plating layer. Plating solution preparation and replenishment: Used to dissolve electroplating chemicals such as nickel sulfate and stannous chloride. It is necessary to prevent impurities such as calcium and magnesium ions from reacting with the chemicals to form precipitates and to prevent the plating tank filter from clogging. Anode cleaning and activation: Clean the oxide film on the anode surface, maintain the stability of the pH value and impurity content of the plating solution, and ensure uniform conductivity of the anode; Post-processing: Rinse the product surface for residual plating solution, and prepare passivation solution and sealant to prevent impurities such as chloride ions from causing white frost or peeling of the passivation film; Environmental compliance: As rinsing water, it reduces the concentration of heavy metal ions and chloride ions in wastewater, lowers the difficulty of wastewater treatment, and meets the requirements of "water-saving electroplating".
[0003] A prior art patent with publication number CN104291492A discloses a solution comprising an electroplating wastewater storage tank, a cyanide breaking tank, a chromium removal tank, a flocculation tank, a sedimentation tank, a bottom sludge collection tank, a bottom sludge drying and pulverizing machine, an adsorption tank, and a reverse osmosis treatment device. The electroplating wastewater storage tank includes a first storage tank, a second storage tank, and a third storage tank. The first storage tank is connected to the cyanide breaking tank, the cyanide breaking tank is connected to the third storage tank, the second storage tank is connected to the chromium removal tank, the flocculation tank is connected to both the third storage tank and the chromium removal tank, the flocculation tank is connected to the sedimentation tank, the adsorption tank is connected to the sedimentation tank, and the reverse osmosis treatment device is connected to the adsorption tank.
[0004] As these existing devices, including those mentioned above, have been used, their shortcomings have gradually become apparent, mainly in the following aspects: First, existing water treatment systems have poor water quality adaptability. Traditional water treatment systems are mostly general-purpose and cannot meet the core requirements of low ion, low TOC, and low particulate matter in the electroplating industry. The output water quality fluctuates greatly, which can easily lead to plating solution failure and increased plating defect rate.
[0005] Secondly, conventional reverse osmosis systems have a water recovery rate of only 50%-75%, and a large amount of high-salt concentrated water is directly discharged, which not only wastes water resources but also increases the environmental pressure of high-salt wastewater treatment; the accumulation of impurities will lead to a decrease in the dispersion ability of the plating solution and uneven coating.
[0006] Third, the system requires frequent replacement of filter media and replenishment of fresh water, and the acid-base regeneration process generates secondary pollution, which does not conform to the green production trend of the electroplating industry. The existing system does not design a tiered water supply scheme that takes into account the differences in water usage at each stage of electroplating, and the mixing of ultrapure water and ordinary pure water results in wasted treatment costs.
[0007] In conclusion, the existing technology obviously has inconveniences and defects in practical use, so it is necessary to improve it. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation
[0027] The embodiments of the technical solution of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical solution of the present invention and are therefore intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0028] like Figure 1As shown, the high-utilization-rate water treatment device includes a raw water pretreatment unit 1, a primary filtration unit 2, a secondary filtration unit 3, and a continuous electro-desalination unit 4 connected in sequence; the secondary filtration unit 3 is connected to a pure water outlet module 6, and the continuous electro-desalination unit 4 is connected to an ultrapure water outlet module 7. The wastewater outlets of the primary filtration unit 2 and the secondary filtration unit 3 are connected in parallel to a wastewater pretreatment unit 5, and the clean water outlet of the wastewater pretreatment unit 5 is connected to the inlet of the primary filtration unit 2.
[0029] The raw water pretreatment unit 1 includes a raw water tank 9, a quartz sand filter 10, an activated carbon filter 11, a fine filter 14, and an intermediate water tank 12 connected in sequence.
[0030] A raw water pump 13 is connected between the raw water tank 9 and the quartz sand filter 10. The pipeline between the raw water pump 13 and the quartz sand filter 10, as well as the pipeline between the activated carbon filter 11 and the fine filter 14, are respectively connected to a dosing tank 22.
[0031] A dosing tank is also provided between the primary water tank 17 and the secondary high-pressure pump 18.
[0032] Quartz sand filter 10 removes large particulate suspended solids, colloids, silt, rust and other physical impurities from raw water, reduces water turbidity, and protects subsequent precision filtration and membrane elements from being scratched or blocked by large particles.
[0033] The activated carbon filter 11 removes residual chlorine, organic matter, odor, and color from the raw water, while also adsorbing some heavy metal ions, thus preventing residual chlorine and organic matter from oxidizing and contaminating core components such as the subsequent reverse osmosis membrane.
[0034] The fine filter 14 serves as the final barrier in the pretreatment process, removing fine suspended solids and colloidal particles (typically retaining particle sizes ≥5μm or 1μm) remaining after the first two stages of filtration, thus thoroughly protecting subsequent precision components such as the reverse osmosis membrane from being scratched by particles.
[0035] The raw water tank 9 is also connected to a heating unit 8, which is turned on in winter to ensure that the water does not freeze.
[0036] The primary filtration unit 2 includes a primary high-pressure pump 15, a primary reverse osmosis module 16, and a primary water tank 17 connected in sequence.
[0037] The first-stage reverse osmosis module 16 is the core unit of the deep purification stage. Its processing precision is far higher than that of the pretreatment stage. It can significantly remove impurities such as ions and organic matter from the water, laying a key foundation for producing qualified pure water.
[0038] The secondary filtration unit 3 includes a secondary high-pressure pump 18, a secondary reverse osmosis module 19, and a secondary water tank 20 connected in sequence.
[0039] The secondary reverse osmosis module 19 is a deep desalination stage based on the filtration of the primary reverse osmosis module 16. It is mainly used to further purify the water quality to meet the demand for higher purity water.
[0040] The continuous electro-desalination unit 4 includes an electro-desalination high-pressure pump 21, a continuous electro-desalination module 23, and a pure water tank 24 connected in sequence.

[0042] The wastewater pretreatment unit 5 includes a recycling tank 25, a high-pressure pump 26, and a recycling reverse osmosis module 27 connected in sequence.
[0043] The process of adding a reverse osmosis module 27 to the wastewater recycling unit and returning its product water to the front end of the primary filtration unit 2 is the key to improving the overall water recovery rate of the pure water unit and reducing water waste.
[0044] The purified water outlet of the reverse osmosis module 27 is connected to the intermediate water tank 12, which improves the conversion rate of tap water and pure water, greatly reduces costs, and the water production rate of the entire water purification system is as high as 80% or more after recycling.
[0045] The wastewater outlet of the first-stage reverse osmosis module 16 is connected to the recovery water tank 25.
[0046] The wastewater outlet of the secondary reverse osmosis module 19 is connected to the recovery water tank 25.
[0047] The pure water output module 6 is connected to the secondary water tank 20.
[0048] The ultrapure water output module 7 is connected to the pure water tank 24.
[0049] The secondary reverse osmosis module 19 is like "double insurance". Even if the primary reverse osmosis module 16 is slightly contaminated or its performance deteriorates, the secondary reverse osmosis module 19 can make up for its insufficient treatment and prevent contaminants from entering the subsequent water use process. This invention also discloses a high-utilization-rate water treatment method, comprising the following steps: S1: Raw water pretreatment: Tap water is filtered through a three-stage process of quartz sand filter 10, activated carbon filter 11, and fine filter 14 before entering the intermediate water tank 12 for storage; the water quality parameters are: turbidity ≤0.5 NTU, particulate matter content (≥1 μm) ≤20 particles / mL, suspended solids removal rate ≥90%; residual chlorine ≤0.05 mg / L, TOC ≤3 ppm, color ≤5 degrees, heavy metal ions ≤0.01 mg / L; S2: First-stage reverse osmosis purification: Water from intermediate water tank 12 is sent to the first-stage reverse osmosis unit via first-stage high-pressure pump 15, and the initial purified water is stored in first-stage water tank 17; the water quality parameters are conductivity ≤10μS / cm, desalination rate ≥99%, TOC ≤0.5ppm, microbial retention rate ≥99.9%, and total ionic impurity content ≤10ppm. S3: Secondary reverse osmosis purification: Water from the primary water tank 17 is sent to the secondary reverse osmosis unit via the secondary high-pressure pump 18, and the produced pure water is stored in the secondary water tank 20; the water quality parameters are conductivity ≤1μS / cm, total desalination rate ≥99.5%, TOC ≤0.1ppm, silicon ions ≤0.05ppm, chloride ions ≤0.1ppm, suitable for pre-plating cleaning scenarios; S4: Continuous electro-desalination and purification: Water from the secondary water tank 20 is sent to the continuous electro-desalination unit 4 via the electro-desalination high-pressure pump 21, and ultrapure water is stored in the pure water tank 24; the water quality parameters are resistivity ≥18.2MΩ・cm (25℃), conductivity ≤0.055μS / cm, TOC ≤10ppb, ionic impurities ≤0.1ppb, microorganisms ≤1CFU / mL, suitable for precision rinsing scenarios; S5: Concentrate recovery: Wastewater from the primary and secondary reverse osmosis units is stored in the recovery water tank 25. After being treated by the recovery reverse osmosis module 27, the water in the recovery water tank 25 has a conductivity of ≤50μS / cm and a desalination rate of ≥98%, and is returned to the intermediate water tank 12 for recycling.
